Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
After enucleation or evisceration with placement of a dermis fat graft or integrated orbital implant as a primary procedure, there can be secondary loss of orbital fat volume causing regression of periocular tissue and malpositioning of the cosmetic shell. Current techniques for correction require open surgery to place a sheet/block of biocompatible material or a macroaggregate of fat into the orbit to augment orbital volume for permanent correction. Alternatively, hyaluronic acid-base fillers (Restylane, Radiesse) have been injected, but these have proved to be temporary. The current study seeks to show that a permanent augmentation of orbital volume can be achieved using a closed cannula injection of autologous fat.
